Decomposed body found in Jatinegara

JAKARTA (JP): A decomposed, headless body of a man was found
on Wednesday wrapped in a gunny sack in an almost dry gutter in
Jatinegara, East Jakarta.

A forensic examination revealed that the body started
decomposing sometime between two weeks and two months ago.

Agus Purwodianto, one of the forensic experts at Cipto
Mangunkusumo General Hospital, said many bones in the body were
missing. The missing bones were a part of the neck, the right
shoulder blade, the right hand, the left forearm and the right
lower leg.

He said he could not determine the cause of death because the
body was too badly decomposed. He said judging from the missing
body parts, there was a possibility the body was dismembered.

The victim, estimated to be about 1.6 meters tall, was
dressed in a single-striped Ticci t-shirt, a pair of Lee blue
jeans and a dark brown leather belt. (01)
